| A. Duties of Authors |
| 1. Reporting Standards |
| |
Authors of reports of original research should present an accurate account of the work performed as well as an objective discussion of its significance. Underlying data should be represented accurately in the paper. A paper should contain sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the work. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behaviour and are unacceptable. |
| 2. Data Access and Retention |
| |
Authors are asked to provide the raw data in connection with a paper for editorial review, and should be prepared to provide public access to such data (...) and retain such data for a reasonable time after publication. |
| 3. Originality and Plagiarism |
| |
The authors should ensure that they have written entirely original works, and if the authors have used the work and/or words of others, this has been appropriately cited or quoted. |
| 4. Multiple, Redundant or Concurrent Publication |
| |
An author should not publish manuscripts describing essentially the same research in more than one journal or primary publication. |
| 5. Acknowledgement of Sources |
| |
Proper acknowledgement of the work of others must always be given. |
| 6. Authorship of the Paper |
| |
Authorship should be limited to those who have made a significant contribution to the study. All significant contributors should be listed as co-authors. |
| 7. Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest |
| |
All authors should disclose any financial or substantive conflict of interest. |
| 8. Fundamental Errors in Published Works |
| |
When an author discovers a significant error, it is their obligation to notify the editor and cooperate to correct or retract the paper. |
| 9. Hazards and Human or Animal Subjects |
| |
If the work involves chemicals or equipment with unusual hazards, authors must clearly identify these in the manuscript. |
| 10. Withdraw Articles |
| |
Authors who withdraw articles during the review process will be charged IDR 250.000. Payments are non-refundable. |
